A new book on conservation principles is going to be published in September 2009 by Butterworth-Heinemann. The book, edited by Alison Richmond and Alison Bracker, gathers contributions of highly regarded professionals of the conservation field. According to the publisher, “Conservation: Principles, Dilemmas, and Uncomfortable Truths presents multi-perspective critical analyses of the ethics and principles that guide the conservation of works of art and design, archaeological artefacts, buildings, monuments, and heritage sites on behalf of society. Contributors from the fields of philosophy, sociology, history, art and design history, museology, conservation, architecture, and planning and public policy address a wide range of conservation principles, practices, and theories from the US, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, encouraging the reader to make comparisons across subjects and disciplines. By wrestling with and offering ways of disentangling the ethical dilemmas confronting those who maintain and sustain cultural heritage for today and tomorrow, Conservation: Principles, Dilemmas, and Uncomfortable Truths provides an essential reference text for conservation professionals, museum and heritage professionals, art and cultural historians, lecturers and students, and all others invested in cultural heritage theories and practices”.

The publication of the book will be followed by a two-day symposium on the same subject, organised by The Royal Academy of Arts, to take place in London on 24-25 September 2009.
